Finally got around to figuring out how to make GIFs

The Chandler Family

On the Yellow Brick Road 

What a beautiful family! 

Anyone want to photoshop out that pole? (whoops!) 

The Kantor Kids

The Sweet Spot of Kansas

Despite the fact that we all grew up making fun of how flat and boring we thought Kansas was, my husband and I ended up moving here years later. We just so happen to live in the sweet spot of Kansas: right on the edge of the beautiful and tranquil Konza Prairie. When my dad came to visit he helped teach me some things about landscape photography and lighting. Glad that we captured the prairie and its beauty in the fall. 

The Learning Continues

I took some maternity pictures for a good friend of mine - I decided to try for aperture priority. I think they turned out fine. I learned a lot, and hopefully can improve in the future. Its hard to think fast about lighting and all the different camera settings, while people are waiting on you and children are getting tired of taking pictures and ready for their target ICEE as promised. But its so fun, and these kids (and mom) handled me well!

 Composition and people interaction are definitely my favorite parts of taking pictures. No to do more learning....

My friend wanted everything in black and white, and has requested that pictures of her not go viral, but has approved me to show you these. ( I would love suggestions for further improvement... i know that their is lots to be had)
